    Summary

    Xiao's heart is pumping erratically. His shoulder is burning hot, it is on fire. It hurts so bad. Don’t stop, don’t– The traveler's arm moves along his shoulder and he grabs it tighter, desperately. Don’t leave, don’t. Aether smiles at him warmly. So warm, so warm.

    A brand of molten iron is being melted into his shoulder blade and his knees buck slightly underneath him. Warm, so warm, the traveler directs a confused look at Xiao until the others land on the Chamber.

    You’re leaving, please don’t leave-- I can’t breathe. The traveler lets go and it is agonizing. The heat leaves, and he is cold again instantly, the chill like icy frost. I’m so cold, please come back.

    Xiao shivers in the rain, staring blankly at the traveler. He turns back, grinning oh-so brightly at Xiao. “Thank you for saving me, Xiao.” It hurts, it hurts so bad. Come back.

    The voices are a chill that flows from Xiao's brain all the way down his body in waves of frostbite. He's used to them, and they'll never go away. No matter what he's tried.

    Summary

    The last Yaksha has learned to live with silence, with painful memories, and with the ache of names long since faded into the Ley.
 But when a ley line illusion takes the shape of a friend he has spent centuries mourning, Xiao is forced to confront a wound he never allowed to heal, and the fragile hope that has survived even in his grief, as his karma spirals dangerously out of control.

    Meanwhile, Aether follows the aftermath of a vicious battle, unaware that his path is leading him toward a story buried in time and bloodshed, towards a revelation that could change how Xiao bears the burdens of the past, forever.

    When their paths collide, what will survive?

    Summary

    “I was wondering…” Xiao said quietly, looking at the string around his finger , “What is a soulmate? I have heard it mentioned before, but I do not fully understand.”

    The pair sat on a hilltop, looking out over the sprawling plains and enjoying the warm breeze off the sea.

    “Ah, as it sounds, a soulmate is the mate of your soul. Two beings who complete each other and are irrevocably tied to one another.” Morax looked off into the sky with soft eyes. “Those lucky enough to have one will have a thin red thread tied on their left hand, which will connect to the other half.”

    Xiao looked at him skeptically.

     

    Xiao was not always called 'Xiao', he was not always so content with his duties, but he has always had the red thread tied around his finger leading to someone who will love him more than he could ever imagine. He just has to survive long enough to find them.

    Summary

    You are completely invisible. For over three years not a single soul on Earth has seen you. The life you once had is gone, washed away in the tide of the world that moves on around you. Nothing you do can change anything, no one can hear you speak, even when you shout. Your hands cannot touch a single object unless there are absolutely no eyes on it. After watching all of your worldly possessions get sold off to strangers you've become a nomad, drifting down interstate highways in the backseats of cars that have room for you to go unnoticed.

    In a world full of people who haven't been able to see or sense you for years, on a day like any other that you've lived alone while trapped amongst humanity, one person sees you meandering around the crime scene he's just walked in to investigate. Sam's sickly, and tired, and he doesn't trust his eyes or mind— he's been known to hallucinate people before. But he can't help feeling like you're too real to be a figment of his imagination.

    And if you're a real person, whom only he can see, isn't it his responsibility to help free you?

    Summary

    The room is too bright.

    It’s quaint, in a nauseating sort of way. Polished floors glint from the gleaming honeycomb chandeliers overhead, make him squint. A few vases sprinkled here and there, filling the room with a sickeningly sweet scent – even a waffle-cone headrest framing the silken sheets of a neatly-tucked bed. Outside, the golden sun gleams, the gentle rays of light spilling past curtains that waver in the afternoon breeze.

    It's meant to be beautiful. Luxurious. Welcoming.

    With one sweep of his cane, Shadow Milk tears it apart.

    Summary

    Your father, a dwarf who had fled Erebor, found your mother in Bree. As a young hobbit, daughter of the Old Took, she had taken to working in The Prancing Pony where the passing travellers shared stories from the wider world. Satisfying much of her need for excitement and adventure.

    It didn’t take long for the two to grow friendly, then court and in time, marry. Once she found out she was with child, the two of them moved to Buckland where they could raise the little one (you) in a quieter, safer place.

    You grew up with a strong love of adventure that never faded.

    This is a re-telling of The Hobbit. A slow burn Thorin/Reader story where you become part of the company and join Thorin, Bilbo and the others in the quest to re-take Erebor.

    Summary

    Pure Vanilla Cookie manipulated concepts he should not have. He played with his and Shadow Milk Cookie's souls. Despite his awakening and new found strength something was off all the same. His strength was draining and along his soul jam lines appeared much like the crack from when he shattered their joined soul jams and soul from Shadow Milk's. The weakness worsened until he could barely move and that is when his beast counterpart appeared before him carried by his servant Black Sapphire Cookie.

    She wants him to investigate, along with a certain former Harbinger, mysterious events that occured in the region.
    What they're about to find is far worse and horrible that they could've ever imagined...

    ---

    A kind of crossover with TLOU: please expect infection/infected, adapted to Genshin's universe, as well as violence/blood and explicit violence/gore description.

    This is a zombie/infected outbreak story, so expect heavy themes/events as well.

    Summary

    “SO…You’re paying for everything.” Xiao asked, his eyes narrowed towards the guy sitting in front of him. “Yes. Everything.” The blond man confirmed, taking off his sunglasses to show how serious he is. “The plane tickets, meals, the hotel. What else?” he tilted his head in thought, “Never mind. The important thing is you won’t spend a single mora in this trip unless you wish to. All you have to do is to take good pictures of me for the whole duration of my vacation.” The blond leaned in as he spoke. “And you’re also going to pay me full according to my rates?” Xiao asked again, resting his arm on the table as he leaned in as well. “That’s right…and with extra bonus if I love love the photos.” The blond guy said again. This is a lot for Xiao. He leaned back on his seat, just taking it all in.

    Xiao is a photographer who’s for some reason, stopped taking pictures. But then came along Aether, a guy who’s trying to hire Xiao as his personal photographer as he plans to go on a solo vacation. But that wouldn’t be a solo vacation now, right? What else could happen between the two?

    Summary

    John Watson never had any plans to stay in London long, especially if he couldn't find a flatmate. Then, he bumps into an old friend who introduces him to Sherlock Holmes, consulting detective. Before he knows it he's wrapped up in all sorts of criminal investigations, and he secretly hopes, Sherlock's arms.

    Basically the book version of BBC Sherlock. I'm writing it all but with more Johnlock because the original series robbed us and that queercoding was foul. We deserve better <3

    Summary

    Things hadn’t felt right in 221B since John and Rosie moved back in. Everything was off. Wrong. If only Sherlock knew it was about to get even worse. But, for vegetation to return to a barren wasteland, rain from thunderstorms is necessary. A brushfire, even, to burn away the old and provide nourishment for the new… and to expose a truth that’s been present all along.

    Excerpt from Chapter 1:

    He stumbled as he was yanked backwards by the chain of the handcuffs, Mr. Morrison’s cruel hand having snaked under his Belstaff to assert his control. John met his eye. He nodded once, almost harshly, in the regimented yet reassuring manner of a soldier. Sherlock knew he was painfully squeezing his hands together behind his back as if to punish himself; lips bitten red and a tightly clenched jaw also betrayed the worry behind his steely façade.

    “I’ll kill him,” John said, terrifyingly calm. “I’ll kill him and bring you home. I will.”

    NOW COMPLETE!
